Next stop TNS...

OUR draw on Saturday against Welshpool provided with a lesson in what it takes to get results in this league.
A combination of being tight at the back and taking our chances was lacking first half which in the end saw us go in undeservedly 2-0 down at half time. The second half however, showed we can be quick learners with our performance in taking our chances in front of goal and not allowing the opposition opportunities to score themselves.
The football we played even in the first half was a lot better than when we had beaten Airbus the previous week and after the game it was a good sign of our confidence that we saw it as two points dropped rather than a point gained. Despite feeling this way, I believe as the new team in this league we need to view every point we get as a point earned and not two points dropped and keep our points tally rising.
This Friday night offers a different proposition when we visit TNS. Our first away game of the season and one I think everyone at the club is looking forward to. People may not expect us to go there and get anything but we will go there without pressure and hopefully give TNS a good game.
The key to getting a result will be learning from what happened last Saturday in the first half and if we can do that and keep our discipline in terms of our shape, then we have a chance.

With a new league comes new and unseen ground for not just players but the club as a whole. The issue of admission prices has been debated on our forum and I found it a good sign that members of the committee had listened to the suggestions of supporters and have looked into the admission prices for children. Its important that as a club we (players, committee, supporters) are all for the same cause which is seeing Prestatyn Town successful. There may be creases to ironed out but the fact that the club are making an effort to communicate with supporters bodes well for the future.

At the moment at least, its pleasing to see us making strides forward both on and off the pitch.
